Tell me a good reason to switch to Firefox 5.

Hello, I am using Firefox 3.6 and I am glad with it. I have tried Firefox 4 and had a bad experience: unusable and very slow, and I had a big trouble to get rid of it, because I could not uninstall! Please tell me a good reason to try Firefox 5. Tell me that it is exactly like 3.6 (but... why should I change?)

I wouldn't be worried about Firefox 3.6 reaching the 1000th revision or more.
I don't like 4 and if 5 looks the same I will not like it too. The new version is a mess and does not work better than the old one. When 3.6 will end support I am going to search for another browser.

I can no longer get my complete bank statements online, and my bank blames the Safari update and tells me to switch to Firefox. Is there no other solution?

I can no longer get my complete bank statements online, and my bank blames the latest Safari update and tells me to switch to Firefox. Is there no other solution?

I would feel dreadful If I thought had caused you a problem. The warnings about Java are fully justified but providing you are communicating with a known source, and as I said, you disable it the moment you have finished, you should be safe.
It might also be worth asking your bank what problem they have and would it be the same if you were using Firefox, for example.
Like you, I am very security minded, in fact I won't even put my bank details on my Mac let alone run my account that way.

7 good reasons, why artist=album name is not the solution for compilations

Hi,
in this forum everytime the compilations-problem is discussed, somebody comes up with the solution to fill the album-name into the artist name field and to set the song-title name to "Artist / Song-Title". This might help with the cover-flow issue but does have the following downsides:
7 good reasons, why artist=album name is no alternative for compilations
========================================================================
1) It messes up the artist search.
2) Unability to turn the display of artists on compilations on or off on demand without changing all the tags
3) The mp3 tags are not used in the standard way
4) "Artist / Song-Title" as song-title name is often too long to display
5) The album name appears twice in the song information display when the song is playing (as the artist name and as the album name)
6) This is not consistent with how it works in iTunes
7) People owning a lot of compilations are forced to do A LOT of manual changes only to "fix it" back when (hopefully soon) a new firmware fixing this issue arrives
I already posted this as an answer in another thread but I thought it might be helpful to discuss this in an own thread. What do you think about the reasons? Can you add additional reasons?
If Apple really left out the compilations-flag on purpose (see http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=5401783#5401783) we might need some good arguments to bring it back in.
Best regards, Jens

Yes, I agree with your list. I also think it is inconceivable that Apple simply forgot to add the compilations feature. There obviously has to be a good reason for this. However, I haven't got a clue what that reason might be.

You can not do like above:
Try the below:(Not tested), Below, we do not change the code, however, we placed your dynamic execution to different procedure.

You can use the Tab key to select a search engine on the bottom bar and press Enter to use the search engine to do the search.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Search+bar
In the current Firefox 34 release there is a new "one-off" search bar.
This search bar doesn't show the name of the search engine and a logo.
You can type one letter to make a drop-down list appear where you can see suggestions and see the used search engine and that also has bar at the bottom where you can select other search engines that are enabled via the Search tab in Options/Preferences.
You can use the Tab key to select one of the other available search engines and press the Enter key to search with the selected search engine.
Click the search engine icon and click "Change Search Settings" to open the Search tab in Options/Preferences (positioned between Tabs and Content) to select the default search engine and select which search engines to show in the search bar drop-down list that opens when you start typing search terms.

Any good reason to apply firmware update 1.2?

Just for those of you with a 2.17 Ghz iMac Intel Core2Duo (purchased December 2006) 20" model, is there a good reason to apply firmware update 1.2? I.e. does it improve compatibility with any other updates? I currently have Boot ROM version IM51.0090.B03. I didn't want to apply it unless absolutely necessary, or if it improves anything. I prefer to say "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."

a brody...I did apply 1.2 the same day as it came out....wasn't having a problem before and did not have a problem after...saw no change....ain't broke ,don't fix it....for you 2 Al...
but you are both behind

Are there good reasons to upgrade to FCE version 4?

Hi, I am currently using FCE 3.5.1 I'm thinking that it just might be time to upgrade. Are there some really good reasons to upgrade to Version 4? Does 4 come bundled with LiveType 2.1, or does it at least have animated type options? Most importantly, in the audio realm, does it actually allow you to hear audio filers (such as an equalizer) in real time as you tweak them? If not, do you know if Final Cut Pro has substantially better audio features than FCE?
I appreciate your input. Bob

"Can you do that on 3.5?"
Yes. What format is the media you're using? There is no way you should have to render an EQ on a MacPro unless you have a lot of tracks. In which case, push up the number of realtime tracks in user preferences. Normal drives should be able to handle 24 tracks in realtime. The tracks count adds in effects as well as a track each.
What kind of animated text do you want? Title 3D and Title Crawl can be animated.
Apple has never sold a pro app upgrade via download. Only updates are available via download. It has never sold recent versions of FCE separately from LiveType, or LiveType separately from Final Cut. It has always been a bundled application and has never been available as a download. Do you have a torrent copy of the application?

Hi, tell me any good app to download video song from youtube..thanks

hi, tell me any good app to download video song from youtube..thanks

[Get Flash Videos] ([get_flash_videos]) from the AUR. It is a command-line program that can download the highest-quality-possible video streams from YouTube as well as many other video streaming websites, and also allows you to log in right there on the console if a video was content-flagged on particular a video-streaming service. You can also download the subtitles/closed-captions along with video.

Rusher dominance is not working on my iPad 1 with iOS 5.1.1 .Can anybody tell me it's reason ? If there's any reason please tell me how to fix it

Rusher dominance is not working on my iPad 1 withies 5.1.1 please tell me it's reason the same problem is with many other games e.g. Acr drift and highway rally.

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!

Tell Me Something Good!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

There's a radio station I listen to on my drive to work that does a daily segment called Tell Me Something Good. It's a nice change of pace for me in the mornings because after skimming the news, I usually need to hear about something good.
So...want to give Tell Me Something Good: Spiceworks Edition a try?
I'll start. Here's a poem trending in London that I really enjoyed reading today. (hint: read all the way to the bottom).

E-Mail attachments are shown as "undefined" since switching to Firefox 7.0.1

Since I switched to Firefox version 7.0.1, any attachments I add to an e-mail are shown as "undefined". If I look at the "Sent" e-mail, and click on "Attachments", I find them to be correct. This is very confusing when there are multiple attachments as I can't tell which have been attached and which remain to be attached. Firefox is my primary (default) browser. When I checked on Internet Explorer 9.0, the attachments were properly identified, so I know this is a Firefox and not a Verizon problem.

Why not switch from Firefox 3 to Tiger (10.4.11) Safari?

I prefer to use one browser. When I had Panther I used Safari until problems occurred with some sites, so I switched to Firefox 2. I upgraded to OS 10.4.11, mainly to use FF3, which I'm now using.
The problem is, I like the AutoFill feature of Safari. FF3 doesn't have it. But, it seems Safari is not updated as frequently as FF3 re: security issues. So, I guess the choice is between better security vs. AutoFill. Right?
As to AutoFill, a member of my Mac user group said, "Who is to say there isn't some exploit found someday, and they can grab the saved contents of what goes in your Autofill?" He's a knowledgeable Mac guy & I don't take his input lightly. He uses FF, btw.
I prefer Safari & am asking you if there is any reason not to switch to it from FF3, which seems the browser of choice for a lot of people. I'll keep FF3 in my apps folder. BTW, I've used Safari in earlier versions for years & never had a security issue, AT LEAST THAT I'M AWARE OF.
So, I guess it's like I said: Do I want security, or do I want AutoFill? Maybe this is a false issue & I'd like some expert advice on this.

Hi David,
Do I want security, or do I want AutoFill?
Ideally, both Firefox does have a level of autofilling, for example it will autofill usernames and passwords, but I'm guessing you are referring to the filling in of your name, address etc when filling out some forms?
As to AutoFill, a member of my Mac user group said, "Who is to say there isn't some exploit found someday, and they can grab the saved contents of what goes in your Autofill?"
True, I don't disagree with that, but the same applies to Firefox's autofill feature as well. I know both Safari and Firefox encrypt their autofill databases but other than that I don't know if one is 'more secure' than the other. The only way to be 100% safe is to not use autofill in either browser - at the end of the day it boils down to convenience versus security.
But, it seems Safari is not updated as frequently as FF3
I think that's more a perception thing than anything else. True, Safari updates do come around a bit less frequently than Firefox, but Apple do release periodic Security Updates and these do correct security issues in WebKit which is the engine that drives Safari.
Both are fine browsers. If you prefer Safari, I'd say go for it. I don't think either is more insecure than the other. If you twisted my arm, I'd say Firefox might be at a tiny bit greater risk simply because of it's popularity compared to Safari (and therefore a juicier target) - but that's just my opinion!
Hope some of that helps.

Switching to firefox

trying to view my brother's transam blog that he created on mac.com in safari 1.3.2 on osx 10.3.9 and it shows no photos. pretty poor for a mac product. works fine on firefox - photos, slideshows, the works.
gets more like microsoft with every new OSX release - buy the new system or get no support. bah.

And your telling us why?
It works pretty well on mine. Safari... iWeb... my photo's look pretty good actually.
This is a user to user discussion board where people help each other with technical issues. And I'm trying to figure out what your specific issue is. Since you don't seem to have one... and since this is not the place to address Apple directly because this is a USER to USER discussion board, I would suggest you go to the Apple Feedback page to air your dissatisfaction.

"New System"? First of all, your brother's system is, ahem... kind of old. No shame in that. Which leads me to "No Support"? Considering your brothers set up, if there was any support to be had, this would've been the place to get it. But I guess your switching to firefox. Oh well.
Good Luck.
